Project: ROW Activity Dashboard

amenity commented 5 years ago

Publicly available web map that displays ATD's activities in the right of way.

Challenge

Let the public know where we are (and have recently been) working in the right-of-way.
Meet the documentation requirements for obtaining a secondary ("blanket") permit from ROW division to do signal work.

Proposed solution

Public-facing map that shows dots and some very simple metadata for where we’ve been over the last 7 (?) days. The map could grab data from our current work order system, as well as data from employees that are not currently tracking their whereabouts (signal timing engineers, communications tech/engineer, construction inspectors). For these employees whose work is not currently tracked, we’d need some very simple form that they could mark their location and a brief description of work. This could be done on tablets or their phones.

Success measures

It helps us meet the reporting requirements for operating under a secondary permit
ROW division and 3-1-1 field fewer calls related to signal work in the ROW.

Stakeholders

We will identify AMD staff who will be stakeholders for the data collection piece of it. For the dashboard, we can get input from PIO and from ROW division.

Per Jen in 11/6 meeting with AMD: This is low priority.

Jen: https://github.com/cityofaustin/atd-data-tech/issues/875 might make sense as a first step.
